Readin' and Dreamin'

With each book in the series, I think I've met my favorite heroine. In The Huntress, we meet Catriona O'Hanlon, an amazing woman who can match wits and swords with any man.

Catriona has been given a mission to protect a young girl and bring her back to Faire Island before a group of evil witches or Catherine de Medici can get to her first. I can't say much, for folks who haven't read the series thus far would be confused and spoiled.

I started reading this book to find out what happen to Martin, but I ended up staying for Catriona. I can't express how much I loved her character. However, I was happy with Martin's ending, after the heartbreak he was dealt in the previous book.

One more book in the series, and the heroine of the next book was introduced in this book. I don't think she's a daughter of the earth, like the heroines of the first four books, so I'll be interested where that book goes.
